Inflammation has been described as the basis of many pathologies of human disease. When one considers the updated signs of inflammation, they would be vasodilation, cell migration, and, in the case of chronic inflam- tion, cell proliferation, often with an underlying autoimmune basis. Gen- ally, inflammation may be divided into acute, chronic, and autoimmune, - though the editors believe that most, if not all, chronic states are often the result of an autoimmune response to an endogenous antigen. Thus, a proper understanding of the inflammatory basis may provide clues to new therap- tic targets not only in classical inflammatory diseases, but atherosclerosis, cancer, and ischemic heart disea...
This eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic. Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area! Find out more on how to host your own Frontiers Research Topic or contribute to one as an author by contacting the Frontiers Editorial Office: frontiersin.org/about/contact.
This is a compendium of data pertinent to the methods and protocols that have contributed to recent advances in molecular medicine in general, but to the molecular basis of rheumatic disease in particular. These volumes details novel technologies, some of which are still evolving and whose impacts are yet to be determined. Leaders in the field contribute to cover exciting and cutting edge topics. This compendium will be a valuable tool.
Advances in Parasitology is a series of up-to-date reviews of all areas of interest in contemporary parasitology. It includes medical studies on parasites of major influence, such as typanosomeiasis and scabies, and more traditional areas, such as zoology, taxonomy, and life history, which shape current thinking and applications.
This volume details bioinformatics analysis, biochemical assays, recombinant protein expression and purification, methods to investigate protease activity in cell-based, organoids and in vivo systems, proteomics, transcriptomics, machine learning and novel approaches to target dysregulated protease activity in cancer. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and cutting-edge, Cancer Immunotherapy: Methods and Protocols aims to provide the scientific community with a diverse and representative collection of state-of-the-art methods to investigate the protean functions of proteases in cancer biology.
In this issue of Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, guest editor Dr. David Hunter brings his considerable expertise to the topic of Osteoarthritis. Top experts in the field cover key topics such as obesity and nutrition influences in osteoarthritis, the genesis of pain in osteoarthritis, overview of disease management, and more. - Contains 14 relevant, practice-oriented topics including overview of disease management, concordance with guidelines, and strategies to increase implementation of best evidence; obesity and nutrition influences in osteoarthritis; pathogenesis of osteoarthritis; behavior change barriers and facilitators in people with osteoarthritis; suitable candidates and realistic expectations in surgery for osteoarthritis; and more. - Provides in-depth clinical reviews on osteoarthritis, offering actionable insights for clinical practice. - Presents the latest information on this timely, focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the field. Authors synthesize and distill the latest research and practice guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based reviews.
A strong clinical emphasis is present throughout this volume from the first section of commonly presenting problems through to the section addressing problems shared with a range of other clinical sub-specialties.
Over the last decades cell biology and biological chemistry have increasingly turned their attention to the space between cells and revealed an elaborate network of macromolecules essential for structural support, cell adhesion and signaling. This comprehensive handbook of the extracellular matrix will give an overview of the current state of knowledge of matrix components (structure and function), their role in heath and disease (matrix pathobiology) and new aspects related to pharmacological targeting. It will provide an introduction to the extracellular matrix and detailed sections and chapters on: Importance of extracellular matrix in health and disease Matrix proteoglycans (aggrecan, ve...
